    Bradley is WAY too strong, tough, focussed, determined, well drilled.

    Khan needs lots more seasoning first, Bradley is the dominant force at 140 for my money right now. And looks like he'll remain so for a while yet.

    Not saying Khan couldn't beat him in the future but right now he's way too fragile.

    No chance this fight happens next.

    Khan is fast but will struggle to overwhelm Bradley, who has shown a very, very good chin (Holt fight) and will also be hard to outmanouver because Bradley has shown versatility against different styles.

    He may not have fought someone as blindingly fast as Khan, and may not be that huge a puncher, but these things are evened out by BRadley's ability to boar his way in (usually with his massive cranium) and let out fast combos.

    I think Khan gets stopped in about 7.

    Dropping Witter heavily says he's got better than average power.

    Big big risk for Khan. If this goes through my respect levels for him will go up handily.

    As long as he doesn't get spannered early, I think he'll go up in everyones estimation.......................maybe that's the plan?

    If Warren is really trying to make this fight shows us things are close to an end with him and Khan and he is trying to get the most out of Khan before he starts fighting in the U.S becuase this is a risky fight I am not sure Roach will approve this right now, maybe in 2 or 3 fights down the line yes. By the sound of it Bradley is willing to come over here and fight Khan. Khan can do a bit of a Kotelnik (But sit down on a few more punches) on him and get the win via points.

    Khan is 5'10, Bradley is 5'6. Khan has the reach and speed over Bradley and with Roach is now using his reach and speed to great effect. Khan also has good foot speed and high output in workrate. Bradley likes to get close and get his hooks off and headbutts, he lacks a good jab but is a well rounded fighter and the best at 140 bar Manny.

    Khan would try to fight at range and not really let Bradley fight on the inside, will be a good fight but with a good gameplan Khan can pull it off.

    When I seen your name as the person who had posted last in this thread I really had no idea who you were going to say would win.

    :lol:

    Its a 50/50 fight and its a risky fight as i pointed out, But Khan can pull it off with a good game plan.

    Way more than 'risky' or '50/50', Khan would be a fairly big underdog.

    very interesting fight if it were to pull off, khan would, rightly so be the underdog on this fight, but he wants the big fights and if it happens then fair play to him and good luck, i for one will be supporting khan fully

    You'll be supporting Khan?
    Seriously??

    I'm genuinely shocked by that.

    Quite a shock indeed, MrMagoo supporting Khan, now only if we could get Darni to support him too.
